Formed in Waregem and Roeselare in 2001, Demonizer play black and thrash metal steeped in chaos, war, and anti-Christian themes in the tradition of old-school European black-thrash. After a long hiatus the band reformed in 2021 on Painkiller Records, and their discography includes Thrashing Force...Attack, Triumphator, and The Essence of War.
Demonologist is a black and thrash metal band from Cherkasy, Ukraine, formed in 2017. The project fuses black metal with thrash velocity.
Demonology is a death/thrash metal band from Huddersfield, England, emerging in 2025. They study demonology through fierce death/thrash from West Yorkshire.
Whittier, California's Demonslaught have been storming through the black/thrash underground since 2021 with a reckless, fire-and-chainsaw approach that honors the Angeleno tradition of high-speed malevolence. Fast, filthy, and furiously lo-fi, they channel the spirit of the early blackthrash pioneers with contemporary ferocity.
Demonthor is a black/thrash metal band from Rio de Janeiro, Brazil. The band released "A Night for the Demon" in 1999 and is listed as split-up on the Metal Archives, representing one of the underground black/thrash outfits that emerged from Rio de Janeiro's extreme metal scene.
Demophobia is a thrash/crossover band from the ABC Paulista region of São Paulo, Brazil, formed in 2018. They blend the aggression of thrash and death metal with punk rock energy, singing in Portuguese, and have released two records: "Moinhos de Gastar Gente" (2019) and "Modus Operandi" (2020), both recorded at Toca do Chico Preto studio in São Bernardo do Campo.
Demoralyzer is a blackened crust-thrash band from Pilsen, Czech Republic, active since 2013 with a prolific run of releases blending punk fury with metal heaviness. Their Czech-language tracks like 'Metalomorfoza' and 'Balada Opilcova' fuse crust punk's urgency with thrash and black metal ferocity.
Denata is a death and thrash metal band from Linkoping, Sweden, formed in 2012. The project fuses death metal with thrash velocity.
Santa Rosa, California's Dendra picked up crossover thrash's anarchic baton in 2019 and ran with it headlong into the pit — channeling the DIY fury of hardcore while maintaining the metallic chops that keep the riffs memorable and the neck snapping. Northern California's wine country proves it can produce something considerably more dangerous.
